ALAMEDA:Okay. Director? SIRACUSA:As long as were on it. YUEN:We, we are trying to encourage inter-connected, inter-connected movement between neighborhoods and areas. And so for, what we have here is an area that after the construction of-. If you look at the site plan there is an area immediately at the top of the page. If you point to the top of the site plan. Theres another potentially developable lot above there. And, its going to be, its going to be cut off on the south side to the right by the Waiaha Drainage Way so you probably wont have access into it from the south. And, its on the mauka side, its bordered by the Queen Kaahumanu Highway and we would probably not want direct access to the Queen Kaahumanu Highway. They, what they were, what they were agree, the part that they agreed to is, solves the basic circulation of getting in and out which is that if you point to the access road at the top of the property. If thats where the final access is to the Queen KaahumanuHighwaythentheywouldhaveawayouttotheQueenKaahumanuHighway.But you wouldnt be able to get from, from-. What theyre proposing is, is, is, you dont have a way to get from one neighbor, from, if you point to that other lot. You cant get from there into the subject property. And, also you wouldnt be able to get out. If you look at the, point to the Kuakini exit.

So those are the reasons for having the road inter, to having a road interconnection between the two parts of the property. ALAMEDA:Mr. Lim any feedback? LIM:I think our, you know we dont have an issue with the connectivity. I think its a good idea but I think that the-. Like I say most of the time that you see that its on subdivision roads, which are dedicated to the County so the liability and maintenance issue doesnt become a problem. Once you run it through a private condominium development then the issue of cost share, insurance, you know all that kind of stuff runs out. And we just, you know, we just see this as being, having them go out onto the parkway and then come back down to Kuakini as were going to be doing should be a feasible solution. ALAMEDA:Okay Mr. Lim I know you have further feedback for us but I wanted to ask our Commissioners if you have any questions regarding this particular item. Commissioner Watanabe? WATANABE:Yeah, just a follow-up on that to the Director. Do we have any plans for the County, you know it being dedicated to the County at some point? Is that something reasonable? Seeing that you know we want to open this in-. YUEN:Well they could create, they could create a County dedicable road but I dont think thats in, thats how they plan to develop the property. It would be, if their internal road were County dedicable it would be-. EXHIBIT B 16
